This shows the process of flashing a custom BIOS to a Acer laptop through hardware-means.

I'm using a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian. I have a Pomona 5250 SOIC clip attached to the Pi over the GPIO pins, and I'm using flashrom to flash a custom BIOS directly to the BIOS chip on my laptop's motherboard.

The laptop is a Acer Aspire V Nitro (VN7-572G). The BIOS chip is a MX25L6405D.
